It took less than half an hour for the high wall on the sea to appear and disappear.

When Klein arrived at the port, the water wall had already dropped to the height of an ordinary cruise ship, and it continued to flow downward.

The noise in the water subsided, and the pressure of circling lessened, his head no longer hurt as before, and his breathing became smoother.

But before that, his shirt was soaked in cold sweat, and his face was frighteningly pale. When he appeared in front of the Pearl, Nata was startled, and he quickly sent several people to help him, but he waved them away.

"Is everyone complete?" Klein asked.

"It's complete," Nata jumped off the boarding board, threw the binoculars aside, and touched his forehead.

Patrick took the opportunity to tell Klein about her situation. Klein learned that Nata dared to run back to watch the fun under such circumstances. As soon as the corner of his mouth moved, Nata stopped him with "I know it all".

Nata felt that Patrick would not wink, and continued: "If I can run, can I not run? The main reason is that running is useless. If the water wall really hits us, we will all have to be brave. You don't have to say me, your family It shouldn’t be possible to run there, and when the time comes, the ship will be neat and tidy, and a ghost ship can be formed.”

Klein: "..."

Afraid of his scolding, Nata asked first, "What's the matter with you? Why do you look so bad? Your clothes are also wet, and you just came out of the shower?"

Klein went down the slope and let out a "hmm".

"What's the rush, I don't need your help if something happens." Nata muttered, seeing Klein look at her coldly, not giving him a chance to speak, "Hey, it's okay, don't make that expression, it's okay Is it?" He said excitedly, "Guess what I just saw?"

Klein originally didn't want to talk to her and let her go, but after getting along with her for so many years, he's gotten used to not getting angry with Nata. One second he had a calm expression, but the next second he continued, "What?"

After he finished speaking, he pursed his lips and sighed regretfully.

As soon as he sighed, Nata knew that the incident just now had changed. She dragged Klein to the boat and danced and said, "I saw the mermaid!"

"It's not like you haven't seen it before," Klein said.

The Pearl shuttles between major sea areas, and often sees mermaids singing on the reef and playing on the seashore.It's just that those mermaids are very afraid of strangers, and whenever humans approach, they will dive into the sea quickly, and have no chance to get close to each other.

"No!" Nata pulled Klein all the way to the observation deck, pushed Klein to stand in front of the telescope, adjusted the direction of the lens tube for him, and signaled him to look.

Klein roughly guessed that Nata could be inspired to become such a mermaid, and this guess coincided with his previous feeling.

He bent over and looked into the distance through the binoculars. Under the high-magnification binoculars, the details of the collapse of the distant water wall were clearly visible. The water splashed down in mid-air, forming a rainbow in the sun, spanning both sides of the water curtain , and in the halo of seven colors, occasionally a touch of gold can be seen flying across quickly.

"Did you see it? Did you see it!?" Nata said eagerly, "Golden fish tail! Mermaid royal family!"

There is more than one mermaid royal family, but Klein is sure that the royal family that appeared here is Sweet.

As if to confirm what he thought in his heart, at a certain moment, a very strong deterrent arrow shot towards the Pearl.

That deterrent force hit Klein's heart, causing his heart to thump, and then disappeared, as if it was just to greet him and make a joke.

Klein took a step back abruptly, looked up through the window of the observation deck, and stared straight at the water wall in front of him.

Nata was excited: "The royal family! So there really is a royal family! Will I be the first human in the world to see the mermaid royal family?"

Klein: "..."

Nata noticed his strangeness, leaned forward in front of him, and shook her hand in front of his eyes: "What's wrong with you? Didn't you see it?"

Klein blocked her hand and said, "I see."

Nata was dissatisfied: "Then why aren't you excited at all? That's the mermaid royal family!"

It's the Mermaid King, yes, but you're not the first to see it.

Klein said heartily.

If Nata knew that she had not only met the mermaid royal family, but had also talked and got along with the mermaid royal family, I don't know what expression she would have.

Putting aside the matter of Sweet, just telling him that he is a mermaid hybrid is enough to shock Nata.

Klein wasn't ready for a showdown with the crew yet.

Let's wait for these turmoil to pass.

After 10 minutes, the water wall on the sea surface completely disappeared.

The dark clouds in the sky dissipated, and the sea returned to its former calm. It seemed that the disaster-like scene just now was just a set on the stage of a drama. When the curtain was removed, the sky cleared up in a blink of an eye.

The sky elves and water elves did not evacuate and were still guarding the port.

The sheriffs again cordoned off anyone approaching the coast.

The people who fled from the port before had lingering fears. They waited and watched for several hours, making sure that there were no signs of waves on the sea, and then returned in twos and threes to pack up the streets and stalls.

To be on the safe side, Klein asked all the crew members on the Pearl to go to the hotel in the town to rest tonight, so as to avoid another accident at night.

"What about you?" Nata asked.

Klein pondered for a while, and said, "I'm going to the palace."

He looked serious, obviously he was hiding something from them, Nata didn't care, said "Oh", said: "Come back early", yawned, and went back to the room to rest.

Klein went home to wash up, changed into a set of clean clothes, and first visited a cabinet minister with whom he had a good relationship, and then the cabinet minister informed the king on his behalf. That evening, he met the elderly king in the palace's chamber .

He first asked the king for his opinion on the Pearl's route information submitted a few days ago.

The sky elves and water elves had already informed the royal palace of the cause of the abnormal tsunami, and the mermaid officially entered the human field of vision and became an existence that cannot be ignored in the Windsor waters, while the king was worried about the future form of the sea.

He took this opportunity to implicitly and deviously "speculate" on the conflicts and grievances between humans and mermaids, as well as the geographical disadvantages of the Kingdom of Avril.

And he came from "hearsay", Nata and other "ordinary people" saw the "strange news" that the mermaid royal family prevented the tsunami, polished it up, and reported it to the king, and thus "guessed" that the disaster might have originated from some Extreme friction.

Taking the mutually beneficial cooperation between human beings, elves, and dragons as an example, he talked freely, modestly and casually, and put forward some "humble opinions" on resolving the conflicts between the two races. A situation of racial harmony and reciprocity.

Klein stayed in the palace until early morning, during which time the old king notified the guards to invite several cabinet ministers.

The unformed tsunami during the day allowed humans to see the ability of the mermaid. The king and ministers discussed the issue of mermaid and human dominance of the sea, and estimated the feasibility of negotiating with the mermaid.

As a well-known captain in the Windsor waters, Klein has rich sailing experience, and he has seen and heard more than all the people present combined, and his character has been certified in past cooperation with the royal family. Therefore, his opinion It has become an important reference for everyone.

But in the second half of the journey, he only opened his mouth to talk about his views when others asked him.

His purpose is to narrow the information gap between the two parties as soon as possible, push the negotiation to the table as soon as possible, and minimize the friction loss caused by the confrontation between the two races. left and right.

Besides, the less he participates in such things, the better.

At least, in the eyes of the cabinet ministers, he just happened to solve the king's problems because of today's tsunami and worried that the Pearl would not be able to go to sea in the future to inquire about news.

After leaving the palace, Klein didn't go back to the hotel in the town, but returned to the port in a power car, and stayed alone on the Pearl overnight.

This night, Paloi Harbor was brightly lit, and there were countless people like him who stayed up all night.

Many people look through the windows at the sea they have lived on for many years. What they don't know is that there are also countless pairs of eyes under the sea, silently looking up at the swaying lights falling on the sea.

This was the quietest morning Klein had seen in Port Paloy in 24 years.

There are no sirens, no busy ships, no loud voices, and the sky brightens up quietly.

Gradually, there were pedestrians on the street. Among them were many foreigners who were stranded in the Kingdom of Havre. They could only stand anxiously and watch from a distance, not daring to approach the sea.

Nata and the crew found that Klein hadn't returned all night, so they rushed to the Pearl, and happened to bump into Dick and Lisa who were also visiting Klein.

The three of them patted their chests when they saw that the Pearl and Klein were safe and sound, and let out a sigh of relief after choking all night.

It’s all right, the truth still needs to be clarified, so Lisa and Nata sang together and belittled Klein’s various unsociable and ignorant behaviors. Dick, who had prepared a lot of words, was terrified at the side.

Klein smiled helplessly throughout the whole process, and accepted all the orders.

Finally, the two girls calmed down, and after several assurances, he invited the worried Dick and Lisa away.

Nata ordered the crew who came after them to buy breakfast, and then sat down on the deck in a big way, pulling others to play cards together.

Throughout the day, Paloi Port was shrouded in gloom.

The elves and the sheriff were patrolling the port. From morning to night, the people on the Pearl watched the morning light turn into the evening burning clouds. When the sun was about to set, there was the sound of orderly footsteps on the road leading to the port.

Through the binoculars, Klein saw several cabinet ministers walking towards the blocked port with documents under the protection of the guards.

Hayman himself opened the blockade and let the cabinet ministers and escort enter the port.

The leading cabinet minister had curly gray curly hair, tugged at his tie, cleared his throat, clasped his hands above the second-to-last button of his coat, rubbed his hands nervously, and yelled at the sea. Said: "Dear Storm Controller, I am Arthur, Minister from the Kingdom of Havre. On behalf of the past and people of the Kingdom of Havre, I would like to send my greetings to you and your people!"

There was a gust of wind on the sea, causing slight waves.

Arthur took a deep breath, puffed his chest and continued: "In the past hundreds of years, we lived side by side in this sea area and spent a long period of peace. The Kingdom of Havre loves peace and is willing to contribute to Make efforts to continue the peace, therefore, I come here with the sincerity of the king and the people, and hope to have an open and honest talk with your Excellency on how the two races will get along with each other in the future."

Arthur's ending sound dissipated under the gradually darkening sky.

There was no movement on the sea for a long time.

Cold sweat slid down Arthur's forehead, and he was about to wipe it quietly, when a vortex suddenly appeared on the sea.

Hyman's pupils shrank, and he gestured secretly, and the patrol officers and guards by the sea moved closer to the cabinet ministers.

A step extending to the depths of the sea gradually took shape, and someone walked out of the deep sea stepping on the steps made of water.

Under the moonlight, Sweet's hair was reflected by the moonlight into a metallic white gold.

His attire couldn't be more ordinary, an ordinary white shirt, human trousers and leather boots, he looked no different from the humans on the shore.

Only those eyes that seem to contain a storm, and the joyful and powerful aura when facing a group of humans, show his status as the king of the ocean.
